Today's Highlight in History:

On Dec. 5, 1945, five U.S. Navy torpedo bombers mysteriously disappeared after taking off from Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on a training mission (designated as Flight 19) with the loss of all 14 crew members; "The Lost Squadron," as it came to be known, later contributed to the legend of the Bermuda Triangle.
